National Weather Service issues flash flood watch

Though the tornado watch has not been extended to Sumner, Davidson or Williamson counties, Flash Flood Watches are in effect until 7 a.m. CDT on Saturday.

Friday night, a strong cold front from the west will meet up with the abundant tropical moisture from TD Cindy, ushering in rounds of heavy rain and embedded thunderstorms, mainly after 10PM through roughly 4AM Saturday morning.

National Weather Service officials in the three states said rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches (50 to 100 millimeters) were expected, with isolated amounts up to 6 inches (150 millimeters).

If you know of any closed roads or flash flooding, give Eagle Country 99.3 a call at 812-537-9724. Areas along and north of the Interstate 20 corridor have received heavy rains within the last week with 1 to 1.25 inches occurring last evening across portions of the watch area. Even Indiana in the Midwest felt the impact of Cindy, which sprang Tuesday from the Gulf of Mexico as a tropical storm before roughing up the Deep South and making landfall Thursday.

Heavy rainfall associated with remnants of the storm caused scattered street flooding across central and southern IN on Friday.

Flooding is a concern for many low-lying a flood-prone areas.

Crews in Memphis cleared storm drains in advance to help prevent street flooding before the storm arrived. Nolan McCabe, 10, of St. Louis, Missouri, was vacationing with his family on the Alabama coast when he was hit by a log washed in by a large wave. Cindy also caused widespread coastal highway and street flooding and several short-lived tornadoes, but no other deaths.

On Friday, forecasters were trying to verify exactly how many tornadoes touched down in Alabama during Cindy's passage.

The National Weather Service said the remnants may also produce tornadoes.
